How do I contact the shelter about Sissy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Ratingen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Sissy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Sissy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Ratingen will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Sissy already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.

What happens if Sissy isn't the right fit?

Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierheim Ratingen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sissy and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.

We have temporarily housed Sissy and hope that she will find her people again soon. Sissy is suitable for sturdy seniors in a quiet home. She loves moderate walks and, once she's settled in, she's clingy and cuddly. If you're interested in the little mouse, please contact us to meet Sissy.

About Sissy

What life with Sissy looks like

Sissy is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Ratingen in Ratingen.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
